Monument to Catherine the Great Polarizes Ukraine
For most Odesites — their city being a hotbed of pro-Russian sentiment — the German-born empress indeed holds greatness. She, along with Peter the Great, belongs in the pantheon of Russian patriotism, and symbolizes Russia's naval might and geopolitical glory.
To historically-minded Ukrainians, however, she represents the icon of Russian imperialism and oppression. Catherine the Great crushed the Zaporizhian Sich and further breached the Pereyaslav Treaty of 1654, thus eroding Ukraine's autonomy.

Chapter 2: Charming Odessa
Founded by Russia’s Catherine the Great in the late 18th century, Odesa, a decadent and energetic city right at the Black Sea, will be the point of interest of our excursion today.
Let us take you to a town known for its sunny climate, sandy beaches and beachside nightclubs. To people that are known for being stylish, funny, savvy and not easily impressed in the old USSR. We’ll arrive in Odesa in the morning and start the day right with a tour through the old town, starting in the Port with the founding of Odesa as a Russian Naval Fortress where we will pass by the Belvedere of Vorontsov’s Palace & the Monument of L-Utesov. Continuing to a monument to the city’s founders, including Catherine the Great. Moving on in history to the first Russian revolution in 1905 where the crew of the battleship potemkin stood up against the Russian regime over to the foundation of the Odesa Soviet Republic (which lasted almost two months, until it was sacked by German and Austrian-Hungarian forces) to the Bolshevik Uprising in 1917/1918, through the Ukrainian Independence and finally to the Trade Union House, where in January 2014 the bloodiest civil conflict in Odesa since1918 escalated. With the city’s origin as a Tatar settlement, it has always been the host of a multiethnic population which is still represented today in a large Russian minority of 30 %.
Odesa’s national opera and theatre – the jewel of Odesa’s architectural, designed by the same architects that also designed the Vienna state opera – and the Spaso-Preobazhenskj Cathedral, will introduce us in the Odessan architecture and diverse but simple beauty of the city. Additionally, we will visit the Odesa Privoz, a market filled with Soviet relics and the Museum of Western & Eastern Art.
In the evening we will explore Vul Derybasivska, the famous promenade of Odesa with its neo-renaissance architecture leading us to the potemkin steps with a beautiful view over the harbor. Passing by the Duke of Richlieu statue we will stroll along the tree-lined Primorsky Boulevard, a slight sea breeze accompanying us to the Arcadia district where beach clubs and loud music only leave us to say – Let’s party.
The morning after – if you are still able we would like to take you to one of Odesa’s famous beaches & soak up the sun, build a sandcastle or go for a swim – whatever your heart desires. In the afternoon we will take you back to Kiyv, while taking a little break in the fabled Uman – with its beautiful landscape and the center point of Jewish pilgrims travelling to see the burial site of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov. In Jewish faith, it is believed that a travel to his grave provides the best chance of getting unscathed through the stern judgement.

Viking Guided Tour: Walking Through Central Odessa
Viking tour guide Olga walked us past the important buildings and museums in central Odessa and along Primorsky: partial underground ruins of a Greek city recently unearthed by Archaeologists; a monument to Pushkin outside the former Odessa Stock Exchange; past gorgeous buildings, all built in a different style; another monument to Catherine the Great with Odessa founders Ribas, de Volan, Zubov and Potemkin at her feet; ending at the Opera House in its latest incarnation.
The first opera house was opened in 1810, destroyed by fire in 1873 and rebuilt in 1887. A shame that no performance was taking place during our visit because acoustics are supposed to be unique.
It was obvious that two short days in Odessa would not be enough...
